'Ocean Drive' (maybe their best song) particularly along with 'Lifted' really standout here. Those aside, it's a laid-back, chill listen, but nothing else grabs me. Best Tracks: Lifted, Ocean Drive

An okay mixtape from Chrisette Michele where she sings over more hip hop/trap production that we're used to hearing. Many of these songs were released on the deluxe edition of her album, 'Milestone'. It's not surprising that the best moments are when she is in her usual lane. There are also two acapella covers of Adele and Justin Bieber songs respectively with 'Hello' and 'Sorry'. The tape is worth checking out for fans, but there are too many songs I won't be rushing back to. Best Tracks: My Body, Edge of the Bay, Top of the World

This was an underwhelming listen. Swizz must have photos of many people in the industry. As a producer, he shouldn't have the connections and name in hip hop that he does based on what he's created. 'Runaway' has Nas, so it's not terrible, but he has done much better including on 'Hip Hop 50, Vol. 1' with DJ Premier. Lil Wayne brings his annoying delivery on 'This Sh*t Right Here'. Scar Lip is the best thing on 'Take Em Out' backed by above average production and some DMX adlibs that are always welcome. 'City Sound Like' has wack rappers on it. 'Say Less' is okay. Jay does nothing to surprise on 'Khalas.' The production is average at best, there is nothing catchy, the lyrics aren't interesting, and for the most part the rappers don't impress. Beats: ★★☆ Rapping/Bars: ★★ Hooks: ★★ Best Tracks: Runaway, Take 'Em Out

Not a bad return from Day26. The album gets better as it runs after an uninspiring opening with club-R&B songs like 'Touchdown' and to a lesser extent 'R&B Singer'. When they do what they do best though, which is R&B with some build up, the results are worth going back to. The final five songs from 'You're Worth It' are enjoyable. Best Tracks: Russian Roulette, Impossible, Lose Control

I'd been looking forward to this album for quite some time. I've listened to the amazing duet with Chrisette Michele, 'No Greater Love', about 50 times according to last.fm and the moving 'I Belong Here' from 2020 also made me long for some more Currence music. Here we have his first album for well over a decade. The finale, 'It Is Well', builds up to an amazing crescendo'. I don't love 'Vans X Adidas' or the title track but they aren't bad by any means. There is enough great stuff here. Recommended if you enjoy or don't mind some gospel themes. Best Tracks: One of These Days, No Greater Love, Ransom, I Belong Here, Beauty of Holiness, It Is Well
